It discusses the role of central government in supporting and challenging local authorities, as mandated by the Local Transport Act 2008. The guidance emphasizes the necessity of Long-Term Plans (LTPs) kept under regular review, promoting sustainable strategies that span over a decade, and implementation plans that last 3-5 years. It also highlights goals like economic support, carbon emission reduction, and quality of life improvement through partnerships, consultation, and best practice sharing.
